Delicious food (we had gnocchi with lobster in vodka sauce, crab cakes, & mussels) and they even made us a scrumptious batch of truffle fries (potato, not the polenta ones) on request. My Smoke & Mirrors cocktail was delectable, and the molten chocolate cake for dessert was clearly made with quality chocolate - a perfect end to a great evening. Attentive service from lovely Derek, and perfect, spooky-but-cozy atmosphere for an autumn dinner. A Beacon Hill favorite for sure.

Absolutely loved my dinner here! I decided to take myself out as a treat and got the Gravedigger’s Fix cocktail, a glass of Riesling, the jerk jackfruit roti sliders, the fried trout, and the chocolate torta and everything was incredible. Every flavor was balanced perfectly, and I wish I could buy a whole container of the crab fat hot sauce 😮‍💨

We sat at the bar, the service was excellent, the staff is friendly and attentive. We started with the Rhide island oysters and a clam cake, fresh, bright and delicious! We had fried clams and the swordfish special. The food was cooked perfectly and was hot and delicious! It was fun to sit at the bar and watch the chef cook! We love Captain mardens, check out the fish market too I can't praise the quality and staff enough!

Everything was fantastic - chowder, fish/chips, lobster roll were dynamite, Paul provided outstanding service, cocktails and beers were all my favorites. The nearby pianist elevated our experience. Will be back during our stay.

We always love going to Out of the Woods. There are few restaurants these days that offer food of this caliber. Everything is so fresh and tasty! We had the duck fat biscuits to start and the Korean chicken wings. Both were excellent. For our main courses we had the salmon, steak, and duck. All were cooked to perfection in delicious sauces and glazes. The desserts were also excellent! The staff is always so friendly and they remember my husband and I each time come in to dine there. Travis, the owner, is an excellent front of the house greeter, always makes us feel welcome. Highly recommend!!!

We got there early for our reservation. Allison at the front was amazingly accommodating and we were very grateful for her hospitality and service. Ricardo was our waiter and he had us fully covered and entertained. It’s our third time in and I will be sure to have others heading into Boston for the theatre to be sure and visit. Keep up the good work and the great personnel. It truly makes a difference!
